You forgot "wouldn't be prudent". ;)

I thought the same thing when I read that post but I decided to take the high road for a change just to see what it was like.

Umm... "She" called me the other night and told me "she" doesn't like people misquoting her like this. "She" was pretty livid.

Not really a word or a phrase, but the following conversational interaction makes me crazy.
Speaker 1 asks a question to which Speaker 2 responds "No" only to be followed by Speaker 1 repeating the same question again but this time in a snarky, condescending tone.
Example:
Speaker 1: "Hey, have you seen that new movie that just came out?"
Speaker 2: "No, I haven't seen that yet"
Speaker 1: "You haven't seen that movie yeat?!?

"

Right before I read this post I had the following conversation with

:

: Have you had anything to eat?

: No.

: You haven't had anything to eat yet?

Oh snap! Well, I still like you and all, I'll just have to be extra careful about answering "Yes/No" questions when you're around. ;-)

One of my most hated is "I only work here". No shit, that's why I'm asking and/or complaining to you.
Because you work here!

My usual response is "Not for long"
